(McCleary, Washington) — Melissa Baum, mother of ten year old Lindsey Baum, believes her daughter is alive despite the fact that she has been kidnapped. Her daughter disappeared on Friday June 26, 2009, never returning home after having a play-date with a friend.
“I don’t think she’s in McCleary. I don’t,” Baum told The Daily World of Aberdeen, Washington. “Why would they keep her in McCleary? Whoever took her went on the freeway. There are three ways to get out of McCleary and all three ways there are freeways within five or ten minutes.”

According to the World, Baum’s mother pleaded with whoever has her little girl to bring her to a pay phone so that she could call the police and her location could be traced.
“I’m begging whoever has her will take her to a gas station or a grocery store or a restaurant where she can go to a pay phone and call 911 and say ‘I’m Lindsey Baum’ so we can trace her and find her,” Baum said. “Just let her go. Give her a chance. Let her come home.”
Searchers have been looking for Lindsey on horseback. Divers have also been called to search nearby creeks and swamps, and a National Guard helicopter is currently examining aerial shots that were taken, according to the World. The FBI is also involved in the search.
Grays Harbor County Undersheriff Rick Scott says several tips have already been received, and investigators want information from anyone who may have seen any suspicious activity in McCleary between the hours of 8:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. Friday. Lindsey is 4 foot-9, weighs 80 pounds, and has brown hair and eyes. She was last seen wearing a light blue shirt with a hood and blue jeans.
